Without the fed, we would be flourishing.
Well,
Without the Federal government we would not be The United States of America.
The United States of America (also called the United States, the U.S., the USA, America, and the States) is a federal constitutional republic
comprising fifty states and a federal district. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and
Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. The
state of Alaska is in the northwest of the continent, with Canada to the east and Russia to the west, across the Bering Strait. The state of Hawaii is
an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The country also possesses several territories in the Pacific and Caribbean.

The federal government of the United States is the federal government of the constitutional republic of fifty states and one district that is the
United States of America. The federal government comprises three distinct branches of government: a legislative, an executive and a judiciary. These
branches and their various powers are delineated in the U.S. Constitution; the powers are specified in greater detail in laws enacted by
Congress.
The United States government is based on the principle of federalism, in which power is shared between the federal government and state
governments. The details of American federalism, including what powers the federal government should have and how those powers can be exercised, have
been debated ever since the adoption of the Constitution. Some make the case for expansive federal powers while others argue for a more limited role
for the central government in relation to individuals, the states or other recognized entities.

I know that everybody here hates the idea that the federal government is the reason why we have a president and a country comprised of 50 states..
Without the fed, we would not be the United States of America as noted by out forefathers.....But you do not want to hear about that, do you?
But hey, I understand that people around here do not want to hear what America was founded upon, If you hate it so much, I think you should be blaming
Lincoln............After all, the confederation was doing fine.
I just like most around here really dislike all of the dumb laws that come to pass every year. I also think that we pay enough in taxes and the
government needs to be held more accountable for their actions.
I also noticed that you dodged all of my previous questions directed toward you, just to spew some more unbacked rhetoric towards our country.
How do you know that the states would be just fine? They can't even spend the money correctly that they have allocated.
In one of my last replies I noted the number of states that are operating in the black.. There is only a few. How come nobody wants to address this
issue and keeps spitting the same old "the states would be fine without the fed"? How could you even proove it. It is an unbackable statement that
has no legitimacy.
This tells me that people around here have selective reasoning. It is more than the fed, It is all governments involved in our way of life.
One last thing, the fed is not the only one's ripping us off. I personally feel that the states are more directly to blame for our mess than the fed,
but hey that is my opinion......If the states stood up for their people you might would get some better results in your quest for a governmentless
republic.
I know you will disregard this, just like you did the last reply I made to you...
